This is PopApostle's study of the
adventures of Jack Burton, clownish hero of Big Trouble in Little China and
later comic book exploits. I have chosen to call these studies the Adventures of
Jack Burton, borrowing the unofficial subtitle of the comic book series published
by IDW in 2014-2016. Here, I am presenting my studies relating to
each, such as commentary on the weapons and equipment used by the characters,
sound bits of memorable
dialog, screen grabs and my own musings.

Even though there are no TV episodes featuring Jack Burton at this time,
I am continuing to use the
term "episode" here as I have elsewhere on PopApostle, as a separable piece in the
continuous narrative of a larger story.
